First of all, prepare the shortcrust pastry: put the just softened butter and flour in a bowl and knead until you get a sandy mixture.
Incorporate also the icing sugar, salt, egg yolks and vanilla.
Work quickly until you get some crumbs, which you will compact with your hands, then wrap the dough with cling film and let it rest in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.
Take the dough, divide it in half and roll out one piece at a time into a fairly thin sheet and cut out the main shapes (the 2 trees).
From the scraps of shortcrust pastry cut the stars to use for the tip and other decorations as desired.
Bake for about 10-15 minutes or until golden brown in a preheated convection oven at 180 ° C, then remove from the oven and allow to cool completely.
Prepare the Philadelphia spiced frosting: put the cheese and spices in a bowl and mix, then add the sugar first and finally the whipped cream, mixing with movements from the bottom up, so as not to let it disassemble.
Once the pastry is completely cold, you can assemble the cake: put the frosting in a sac-à-poche with a smooth spout and stuff one of the tree shapes, then cover with the second shape and completely cover the latter with frosting too. .
Decorate the additional biscuits as desired (for example with melted chocolate or royal icing) and decorate your tree.
The Christmas cream tart is ready, you just have to serve it.
